It’s hard to believe that we are halfway through preseason already, and that we have our orange and blue scrimmage in only a week! Today was loaded with team activities.

In the morning we had practice followed by an afternoon at the pool. The first third of practice was primarily defense as we worked on coordinating our blocking with back row defense. During the rest of practice we focused on side out rotations and implementing the defense we had just reviewed.

The scrimmages were very competitive and I’m impressed by the effort our team exerts!

After practice, we were all sure to ice our shoulders and grab some lunch before heading home for a short break.

In the afternoon, we headed to the pool and our preseason individual meetings with the coaches began. At the pool everyone used the downtime to relax by chatting, picking peaches, or our team’s favorite activity aside from volleyball…EATING!
